Chapter 210. The Reality of the World
Outside the mutant prison, Ji Yuan and Fei Er gazed at the heavily guarded place from afar. No one would have guessed that a place that looked like an apartment was actually a prison.
The prison walls couldn't block Ji Yuan's view, and he saw the items inside. The smiling face was indeed Miss Minute, and next to her was an exquisite box, which should be the time controller.
Ji Yuan didn't go in to take Miss Minute. Now wasn't a good time because the entire prison was strange; its time flow was very unstable, and it was in a state of near collapse.
Simply put, if there are time travelers, then this place can easily pull them out of the time flow.
Ji Yuan couldn't believe that such a strange thing had appeared in such a hopeless universe without any connection between them.
The first person he thought of was Nathaniel Richards, a man from the distant 31st century.
He has countless variants that expand history in different times and spaces, the most famous of which are the Remnant, Kang the Conqueror, and so on.
But it's highly unlikely that he's one of the survivors, because one Loki became one of the survivors and later became the God of Stories. After him, no one else would be a survivor.
Because Loki has already sorted out the timeline of the entire multiverse, there will no longer be a divine timeline in the multiverse.
The remnants of the past wove the timelines of the entire multiverse into a sacred timeline, cutting off the branches of time that appeared to solidify their rule.
In contrast, Loki allowed the timeline to flow freely, giving it the most possibilities.
There are no self-closing timelines in the multiverse, so naturally there will be no people left behind.
The sacred timeline here is different from the sacred timeline formed by Stark and his team converging their timelines.
Their sacred timeline does not interfere with the formation of time branches, but rather serves as a preventative mechanism; when forces outside the timeline appear, their sacred timeline will issue an early warning.
As for Miss Minute in this universe, Ji Yuan guessed that it might have been left behind by a certain Kang variant, and even the Eye Demon's manipulation of the Fate Line was related to that Kang variant.
However, it is currently impossible to determine which Kon variant it is, but what is certain is that the Kon variant will definitely appear here, which may be the reason why that Kon variant retains its memory in reincarnation.
Another thing that can be confirmed is that this place must be related to the Eye Demon. Starting from the time of this prison, if you trace back the flow of time to the past, when you reach a certain point in time, you can clearly see the phantom of a tentacle, which is the Eye Demon.
It was a phantom from a past point in time. Even if you saw it, it wouldn't help. You still couldn't determine the Eye Demon's location in reality. This made Ji Yuan even more certain of one thing: the Eye Demon and the ancient rulers of the cancerous universe must have some unspeakable secret.
It's not just targeting the multiverse; it's even plotting something bigger.
Therefore, he must find the location of the cancerous universe, and this dark thing that distorts humanity and poisons the universe should be completely destroyed.
All we have to do now is wait, wait for the Eye Demon to lose patience and let that variant enter the universe to clean up the Pheid who should have died but didn't.
Judging from the Eye Demon's previous caution, he is very likely to do so. The saying "better to die than to die" applies everywhere, let alone an ancient evil god like the Eye Demon.
To speed up the process, Ji Yuan deliberately made the prison's time flow more unstable, to the point where it could collapse at any moment, thus accelerating the Eye Demon's progress.
But just waiting would be too boring. Although we can't do anything rash, it wouldn't hurt to go to the prison to take a look.
Ji Yuan stood up and invited Feier to go to the prison with him, so that Feier could act as a guide and introduce the various mutants inside. Maybe they could even find something unexpected.
When Fei Er saw Ji Yuan get up, he assumed he was hungry and quickly asked, "Sir, are you hungry?"
"No, I'm not hungry. You're the one who's hungry, aren't you?" Ji Yuan replied immediately, a strange smile playing on his lips as he looked at Fei Er.
"Uh—indeed." Phil rubbed his stomach. He was getting old; he was really hungry if he didn't eat. The only thing he had eaten today was that whole bottle of pills.
"Actually, I don't recommend that you eat the things from this world," Ji Yuan said with a smile.
"Huh? Then I'll starve to death?" Phil asked, full of doubt.
"You'll see for yourself." Ji Yuan snapped his fingers, and Fei Er shivered. His only remaining eye suddenly became very blurry, and then instantly became clear again, as if it could see through the fog of the world.
"This is?"
Phil turned to look at the food stall next to him, and the delicious hot dogs on it suddenly looked completely different.
The bread slices turned into a disgusting piece of minced meat, the sausage into a tentacle with countless fangs and a huge mouth, and the ketchup into filthy blood. The stench of decay filled the nostrils, as if trying to rip the intestines out of the body.
"Why is it like this?"
Phil covered his mouth, his face pale, trying his best to suppress the urge to vomit, but the nausea lingered as he looked at the distorted food.
Snapped!
Ji Yuan tapped his finger again.
Fell felt a warm light flash before his eyes, and everything returned to normal. The distortion he had just witnessed seemed like a dream, and even the hunger in his stomach vanished.
He blurted out instinctively, "Sir, please let me see the truth of the world. I want to record all this distortion."
.
Ji Yuan smiled appreciatively. As expected of a human who could remain conscious in a world invaded by the old, if placed in a proper Cthulhu universe, he would be a legendary investigator.
He snapped his fingers, and Fell's vision returned to what it was before, but with some additions. Ji Yuan added a mental filter to Fell to prevent him from seeing more bizarre things and losing his mind. The changes in this world were far more than that.
"Let's go. From now on, until the world returns to normal, you will not need to eat anything. Your stamina will be unlimited, and your strength will be greatly enhanced."
With each word spoken, it was as if the rules of the world were altered. Fell's aged body suddenly became young, thick black hair grew on his Mediterranean head, and his blind eye regained its sight.
Fell felt an incredible surge of power within him, and his gaze toward Ji Yuan was filled with immeasurable faith. The meaning contained in the word "god" was simply unimaginable.
This can be considered Ji Yuan's small gift to the elderly reporter; everyone who tirelessly pursues the truth deserves respect.
